This is a non-typical Amish farm. Non-typical in the sense that this an older house. Most of the amish houses in the Lancaster area have gotten a 'upgrade' in modern house look. Notice that there is no power lines to the house. A nice washing line but no power lines. But don't let some of the Amish fool you. The contractors have an 'outhouse' that is far on their property that has a computer/phone/fax machine to contact their non-Amish foreman. But you can only reach them for an hour there. My dad was a contractor that dealt with Amish contractors at times. And honestly, they build some of the best houses I have ever seen or been in.

Adie, This is non typical, and a wonderful capture with a very good narrative. We have the Amish in in the area as well, and most do have very large and nice homes. Tigs♥ =^..^=

I sure can believe that about the houses if this is representative. No frills, but a large, sturdy dwelling and this one in your photo looks so good in the setting where it is located. Thanks for that information too.

Life is precious; therefore, do not waste it by doing things mechanically without love. We should try to put love into everything we do. - Amma

I live very close to the Amish here in Ohio. I am trying to get them to build me a new trailer. LOL. Gorgeous shot, Adrienne.

They build things the old fashioned way so unlike how they build them now! This place really looks old! Very 19th century at least. Its a beautiful shot.I like the bright green fields all around the old farm house

Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling.
